Oh yeah! I totally forgot about using selectors! (i had to stop using them
for awhile because I had to create compatible CSS code for our IE5 and 6
systems :P anywho ...) However, for my current project, I actually need to
assign classes as I will be having some JS code that will be looking for
links based on their class.

Reason for this, we are going to try to have 2 "modes" for our wiki... one
mode is the "normal" mode that is just like any other wiki and the second
mode is going to be an "enhanced" or a web2.0-ish mode (an experimental wiki
project that will also include an AdobeAIR application). Long story short,
links with certain classes will have special attributes added to the tag and
their url changed.

If it comes down to it, I guess I can search and replace all <a/> tags using
RegEx to determine the URL and apply the changes that way. :)
